SUSAN COLLINS TRANSPORTING SKIES

2 Nov-30 Nov 2002

Overview

Transporting skies, people, and landscape between Penzance and Sheffield, Susan Collins draws from both landscape and trompe l'oeil traditions in painting to create works which unfold in real time, concertinaing space, time and location through a sequence of networked installations. The work uses cameras and projections to draw visitors into the work, transmitting them via the internet in real time to the remote gallery space. Visitors to Site Gallery, Sheffield may find themselves beamed to Newlyn Art Gallery, Penzance, and vice versa.
